1.
Judicial & medical
practice similarity
When English practice comes to be considered, comes
throughout the parallel between judicial and medical
practice: acknowledge at the outset that in the phrase
body politic body is figurative and improper: but
that the impropriety ends there and that in
all the details the assumed correspondency is strictly
correct. Topics exemplified
1 in No of Judges & Physicians
1 No if Judges and Physicians: one for some cases, four
for others: hundred for others for others

it could not be more palpably repugnant to reason
and common sense and altogether indefensible than<lb?> it is applied to juridical cases.
Vituperation, neglect, silence falling — these are
the only answers
